Adventures in Human Being by Gavin Francis

 

This is an anatomy book for a non-medical audience that talks about the human body in highly accessible manner, with minimal jargon and many medical stories.  It starts with your head and ends where else at your feet  
I loved the parts where Francis described his patients and the quirky facts about our organs and body parts that are "insider info" not common knowledge. 

He tried to combine other disciplines to the chapters which sometimes made the chapters feel disjointed. 

It is not a long book and some chapters left me wanting more detail.
